Beware! We have a route in our area that apparently has a new hawk who has a nest nearby. Several of our cyclists have been hit by the hawk. Fortunately they were wearing helmets. Otherwise they'd have had to have stitches in their heads from the claws! Scary, indeed. The first 2 or three that had that happen thought somebody had thrown something at them. So warn those non-helmet wearers that the helmets are good protection from hawks!
